Renovation at 33 Crosby Street cuts apartments per floor from four to two
Built around 1860-61 as a seven-story brick tenement, 33 Crosby Street originally packed four apartments onto each floor. Between 1959 and 1961 the number was halved to two per floor, a change the commission records for it and its twin at No. 31. The upper stories remain residential, with shops or commercial space at street level.
“In 1959-61, the number of apartments per floor was reduced from four to two.”
